Bath repair at your home in The Rock
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Your questions about bath repair in The Rock
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you come to The Rock?
We do. Technicians travel to The Rock from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What areas do you cover?
All of Caerphilly, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
When to call us in The Rock
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A cracked acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for The Rock. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
